Configuring the FCoE interfaces

DRAFT: BROCADE CONFIDENTIAL
Configuring the FCoE interfaces
FCoE maps are used to configure FCoE properties on interfaces. An FCoE map is a placeholder for
an FCoE VLAN and a CEE map. You can assign FCoE maps on to physical interfaces using the
fcoeport command. Once the FCoE map is assigned onto an interface:
• The corresponding FCoE VLAN is applied to the interface.
• The corresponding CEE map is applied to the interface.
• The FCoE/FIP vlan classifiers are applied to the interface.
In short, the interface becomes capable of carrying FCoE traffic. The FCoE map can be applied on
an interface only if the FCoE map is complete in all aspects. That is, it should have an FCoE VLAN
and a CEE map associated with it.
Only a single FCoE map is allowed, which is created automatically with the name “default.” You are
not able to delete or rename this map. By default, if there are no other conflicting configurations,
the FCoE VLAN associated to the FCoE map is FCoE VLAN (1002) and the CEE map associated is
the default CEE map (also called “default”).
Configuring the FCoE VLAN
The contents of the default running-configuration file are displayed with the show running-config
command:
switch#show running-config
no protocol spanning-tree
cee-map default
priority-group-table 1 weight 40 pfc
priority-group-table 2 weight 60
priority-table 2 2 2 1 2 2 2 2
!
fcoe-map default
fcoe-vlan 1002
!
interface vlan 1
If the system already contains an FCoE VLAN 1002, it continues to be used as the FCoE VLAN by
creating a default fcoe-map with fcoe-vlan 1002. If the pre-existing FCoE VLAN is set to something
other than 1002, that VLAN is configured as a standard VLAN and new FCoE VLAN 1002 is created
with the default fcoe-map.
